Representative record: the collection's holdings in this category are publicly documented, but this specific object is an illustrative example of the documented type rather than an individually confirmed holding. A Fokker Dr.I triplane from the collector's WWI fleet — the Red Baron's mount, and one of the most reproduced silhouettes in aviation. The collector's First World War aircraft program is documented in New Zealand and international press.
